Kurikyu Wine Bucket S
Available Sizes
Description
Made by Kurikyu, a Japanese woodworking workshop founded in 1874, this small wine bucket holds one standard wine or champagne bottle with ice. Its bent Japanese cedar construction provides natural insulation, helping maintain a cool temperature while reducing ice melt and condensation. The softly tapered oval form highlights the cedar’s straight grain, while a protective urethane finish guards against moisture.

About Kurikyu
Kurikyu traces its roots to 1874 in Odate, Akita, where six generations of the Kurimori family have carried forward the region’s woodworking traditions. Each magewappa vessel is formed from thinly planed Akita cedar, softened in hot water, bent into shape, and joined with wild cherry bark. The process preserves the wood’s straight grain, pale warmth, and natural fragrance while creating pieces that feel exceptionally light.
Under sixth-generation craftsman Shunji Kurimori, Kurikyu has brought this inherited technique into contemporary life. His tapered, stackable forms introduced new function without disturbing the craft’s quiet simplicity, earning numerous Good Design and Long Life Design awards. From nesting bowls to wine and ice buckets, each piece pairs precise construction with the warm, understated presence of cedar.
